Episode Synopsis

Episode 04 - Sheep Dogs: AustraliaExperts agree that bad dog behaviour is mainly down to bad owners and that the owners need to be fixed first. Don't Blame the Dog, is a unique series that challenges young dog owners with bad attitudes to spend a week living with people who depend on dogs - some for their survival in extreme environments around the world, and others who depend on them for their jobs. In an effort to try and better handle their own dogs, these dog owners must first try to master the working dogs.

On tonight's episode we meet 22-year-old Kim who has no control over her two dogs, including one left to her when her dad died, and 24-year-old Mark who has a husky that loves to chew everything, which is causing problems on the home front with his girlfriend.

They leave their dogs behind and travel to the Australian countryside to spend a week working with sheep dogs and expert dog trainer Matt Webb. Matt doesn't believe that there is such a thing as bad dogs only bad owners.

They'll learn to muster sheep and cattle across the vast landscape and take on a real, paid job that will push them to the limit. Will the experience with the sheep dogs help them re-evaluate their own lives and become better pet owners?
